Better Breathers of the Fox Valley A community wide support group for people with COPD or other chronic lung conditions. If breathing problems are interfering with your life, you can do something about it. Better Breathers of the Fox Valley Area in 2009 was formed by your friends and neighbors as a volunteer-driven community wide support group to share what we’ve learned with others who have breathing problems. We do this in collaboration with local medical professionals.
As individuals who can’t breathe as well as we once did, we know:
Our conditions can be properly diagnosed and treated by qualified medical professionals. There are simple tools and techniques we can learn and use to manage our conditions. Sharing the learning process with others is more fun than doing it alone.
Meetings We hold meetings, featuring speakers with knowledge on topics of interest and value to our members...while offering an opportunity for positive social interaction, emotional support, informal information-sharing and...a healthy dose of good humor. If breathing problems are interfering with your life, you can start now to do something about it!
